S05.E04: A Farewell to Farms

Well, we learned Dr. Miglemoo's first name and species' name. That's something, I guess. Seems a bit unethical to jump to the conclusion that the other Klowahkans were suffering psychologically, rather than from a medical condition. But Miglemoo got gourmet meals out of it, and the others were ... whatever the avian equivalent to "dicks" is.

I do like seeing the absurdity of Klingon rituals and honor being poked. It was worth getting Ezri Dax on DS9 just to hear her tell Worf how silly it all was.

Boimler's facial hair appears to be sentient. The more developed it gets, the more confident he becomes.

There isn't much of a plot so far this season. The space holes really aren't doing a lot. It seems like they're content to put in little Easter eggs to prior seasons - Billup and pet dragons, Klowahkan's fluff and fussy eating, wrapping up Jennifer ...

And I don't recall T'Lynn being in this episode.

Cloaca, interestingly.

Speaking of which, where's the cat doctor?

I think part of Boimler's appeal is that he is the ultimate Trekkie who finds himself in a Trek Universe. His shear enthusiasm for the world he is lucky enough to live in is charming (and I'm envious).

I was thinking about that. Have we seen her this season? 

This show does animal alien species so well. Pretentious hipster bird-people is hysterical to me.

We had two T'Anas in the first episode. They just growled and hissed at each other. I think one chased the other in the background at some point. There was a hand hold with Shax, IIRC.

I do like the little details they add to the aliens they create. The little beak eating utensils were a great touch - such a minor thing, but it works for an avian species.

Boimler being an expert in Klingon history and bureaucracy makes so much sense. I can’t wait for him to have a full grown beard by the end of the season. 

Dr. Migleemo’s species being named the Klowakhans is so funny to me.

So the inter-dimensional fissures are being created by someone, not just randomly appearing. Curious about who’s creating them and why.

Is that the first time there's been an alternate opening titles sequence?

Nope. The 2022 episode that was centered on Peanut Hamper marked the first time Lower Decks eliminated its usual opening titles, and that opening title sequence in the space debris left over from the Titan's attack on the Pakleds looked gorgeous as well.
